 best i have ever used July 19, 2008
my old garmin gps12CX finally gave up the ghost after many years of good service, i thought it would be hard to beat the performance i had from the old one, the 60CSx is miles ahead in the lock time and maintaining the satellite lock in difficult terrain. places where the old one lost lock or bounced around terribly this one is steady as a rock. i also like the geocaching feature. it would be nice if the buyer could chose the initial map data base at the time of purchase
Excellent GPS!! July 15, 2008
Upgraded my old Magellin to this 60Csx. Wow, i loved my old Magellin but compared to the 60Csx it's not even in the same class. The screen colors are bright and vivid and easy to read. The sattalite signals ore a good 25-50% better on the 60Csx. I have not figured everything out yet but I have tried the auto navigation and it is amazingly accurate. It even took me the back way and stayed off busy roads. For under $300 it's a great investment.
Always know where you are! July 12, 2008
Great GPS with great accuracy and fast sattelite acquisition. Works well in heavily wooded environments. We had an E-Trex Legend before, but this is clearly a step above and well worth the money if you desire an accurate and fast updating GPS.
 Love the GPSMap 60CSx unit! July 8, 2008
I already have a Garmin E-Trex Vista unit, and bought this Garmin Map 60CSx as the second one for personal and family use. It is used primarily off road as a handheld for geocaching. I love the larger 2.6 inch screen for the ease of viewing maps and trails. It's accuracy has proven to be very precise even in thick foliage or thick cloud cover during inclement weather. I also like the fact that you can swap out the micro disc for different maps as the need arises. The location of the micro disc under the batteries is a little tricky pulling out because of it's tight sapce. Memory so far has not been a problem! The directions on using a couple of the features were vague, but with the help of friends owning similar units and owning another Garmin handheld helped. I would (and have) highly recommend this unit especially for off road and geocaching!
 Good, but it cannot compare to the Garmin Colorado July 7, 2008

I bought the Garmin 60CSx in February of '07, primarily to use for Geocaching. Although I have owned many GPS receivers in the past, including the somewhat similar Rino 130, I had a hard time getting used to the controls on the 60CSx. For me at least, they are not at all intuitive. I kept pushing the wrong button or having to cycle through all of the screens in order get to the feature that I desired. The display is just so-so, the contrast and the color seems soft and the screen is small.
I lost the unit due partly to the faulty design of the case that Garmin makes for it (it feel off while I was climbing and could not be retrieved). When it came to a replacement I waited until the Colorado became available, primarily because I was never really happy with the 60 series and I hoped that the Colorado series would be superior. It is!
I will be writing a review for the Colorado 400t on it's own page. What I would like to say here is that if you are considering buying a top of the line, hand-held GPSr, (and, if you don't already own the Garmin mapping software that you plan to use with it) I would strongly suggest that you consider the Colorado models. They are must easier to learn, quicker to use, have a better display and can be purchased with the desired software already preloaded. I really love my Colorado, I couldn't say that of the 60Scx.
